NUZZELLA

Our company is located in the wonderful eastern slope of Mount Etna, and is 500 meters above the sea level. The vineyards are between the villages of Piedimonte Etneo and Linguaglossa. They are placed in a unique scenario, characterized by the combination of two territories: the "white lands", sedimentary rocks crossed by torrential incisions and not involved in lava eruption, and the "black lands", which are the result of lava flows that have occurred over time. It is a tongue of lava soil to which the peasants gave the name of "Terremorte", just to indicate the lands submerged by the powerful red river... Our vines are trained as espalier, with a density of 5000 vines per hectare. The work in the vineyard is conducted manually throughout the year with painstaking attention, respecting the agronomic techniques and following the dictates of certified ORGANIC agriculture. The idea is not only to take care of the wine we offer, but also to respect and thank the wonderful land that gives..
